[quote=Anonymous]If the question is "does getting into a service academy mean this kid had better stats than my kid" the answer is no. If by prestigious you mean will this look amazing on a resume and possibly launch the kid to a very impressive career, yes. It's strange to me how many people are trying to prove that this is not a prestigious path. People (employers and voters) hear West Point and pretty uniformly think, "oh, wow!" Does it mean this person thinks outside of the box and is going to buck authority? Probably not, but I could say the same of almost every Harvard grad I've ever worked with. [/quote]
